Art II Lesson Plans October 20, 2011
PRE CLASS: students present work done over the week for instructor’s critique. Review of last week’s technique. Only positive comments are allowed.
OUR INSPIRATION FOR TODAY: Or inspiration for today is from Gospel of St. John. 15:5, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” NIV.
If
you are working on a difficult task remember Jesus is “your vine.” The vine
gives energy, life, nutrition, and everything the branches need to grow fruit.
No matter what church you go to Jesus is the “Vine,” a Christian’s inspiration,
power, and hope. If you take a branch off the vine it can’t make fruit.
Sometimes when I have a hard time I say something like, “Jesus This project is
too big or hard I give myself to you and ask you to do it through me. I give
you my weakness and receive your strength, I give you my lack of ideas and
receive your wisdom, I give you my inability and receive your power. Thank you
Jesus you are going to do this through me.”
